Time to trade?

Hi Team
Carjacked Mike..................how is everyone?

I run a 3 year old vRS Octy, thinking its time to move up a gear and wonder what you guys think of the NEW vRS?

I read Autocar, hmmm.......0-60 in 6.6.........Press Fleet cars still get "looked at" by the Skoda press office i see............I wonder what the real fig is?

No sign of the DSG box being offered as yet.......any thoughts/new/inside info?

Any options i should look at?

Cheers
Mike

Re: Time to trade?

Definately no DSG option on the OctyII vRS and unlikely to be so as it would be to the potential detriment of other VAG cars such as the Golf MkV Gti.

As for the car itself there are plenty of threads on here as to the views of it although you may well get a bit of a biased opinion from owners but it is a cracking car imho
